This responce is to Donald Franck And any one else interested.

I run a stock radiator with 2 fans, 1 pushing air on the right fan witch I

call the secondary fan, And 1 suction on the left side of radiator with the

fan in front of radiator removed , This allows better air flow. Make sure

your overflow  tank will hold pressure, Very important as this becomes your

new pressure tank. Bye 2 new caps

one non pressure Stant # 10203 this cap goes on the small old pressure tank

which

now becomes none-pressurized, The pressure cap stant # 10229 is 13 pd. cap

goes

on your overflo tank whitch is now your pressure tank. Put 1 pint water in

tank remove upper rubber seal on pressure cap and install, Now put water in

small tank

to fill small water line to pressure tank when it not take any more install

non pressure

cap and done. I use the term water because thats what I use along with

Nalcool to

stop rust. I have a 15 pd pressure gauge tied into the small tank so i can

look back

and see what the reading is at sea leval its between 5 to 7 pounds, My second

fan

comes on at 185 and very seldom does it come on, I have a wire that goes from

the

second fan to the speedo fan light so i know wen its on. In vegas this year

it only

came on once And that was at Red Rock Park and then cycled back off. It works

A number SDP member use it with no more overheating poblems.

Keep in touch.  SASS  OR  toy4orv.
